Description
Estern and central part of possible ditch
Interpretation
This context is about exploring the depth of the possible ditch. The eastern side, that is closer to the natural soil has some white limestone inclusion and yellowish brown spots, but generally the color is dark greyish brown. Lots of Late Neolithic II pottery, and some pieces of LNI. Also, shells, a few bones, one of which is burnt, ground stones and a stone tool. Very few CBM pieces. However, the depth of the possible ditch wasnt reached and the goal is to continue next season.
